I guess it's inevitable...

I accidentally killed a few of my broilers. Pfff aw man. Gave 'em the wrong food, but i'm working on fixing it now.
I gave them Broiler finisher (someone at the feed store said that was okay to give them the whole time, apparently not) and now they have leg problems and one has a water-belly. I'm breaking out the moleskin boots....
Has this happened to anyone else?

Yikes! That's a good warning to anyone raising them for the first time!!! Sorry for your loss.
